Ultrasonically guided fine needle biopsies were carried out in 84 patients with focal liver lesions and were subsequently evaluated histologically. A correct diagnosis of malignancy was made in 46 of 52 patients with proven hepatic malignancy, showing an overall accuracy of 93%. The specificity of the procedure was 100%. Such histological examination not only enables the differentiation between primary and secondary hepatic malignancy; it has the additional advantage of making a more precise tumour description and at the same time it pinpoints the primary site of the tumour.
对84例有肝脏局灶性病变的患者进行了超声引导下细针穿刺活检，并随后进行了组织学评估。在52例经证实为肝恶性肿瘤的患者中，46例做出了正确的恶性肿瘤诊断，总体准确率为93%。该检查方法的特异性为100%。这样的组织学检查不仅能够区分原发性和继发性肝恶性肿瘤；它还有进一步的优势，即能更精确地描述肿瘤，同时还能确定肿瘤的原发部位。
